Ophelia Hu Kinney offers a helpful word in her message for the fourth Sunday of Lent. “Spend less time attempting to fix [yourself] in order to earn love…” Speaking from her own experience she says, “What we have is God’s presence, God’s being with a God who, as Nancy Eiesland puts it, ‘celebrates joy and experiences pain, not separate in time or space, but simultaneously.’” Ophelia’s scripture is John 4:28-29, 39-48.
